How ‘The Deuce’ turned a quiet NYC neighborhood into porn-tastic Times Square

How do you re-create one of the most famous neighborhoods in the world during its most infamous era? When you’re talking about Times Square in 1971, you have to look far and wide, especially now that the area is sanitized and sterilized (save for Elmos and desnudas).

A Taste of New York

A Taste of New York

This is the third episode of our independent „A Taste of ...“ time lapse series.
In September 2016 we visited this awesome city to try out some new time lapse stuff.
It took us 10 days, a lot of burgers and one helicopter ride to produce this video. 10 days is very little time to discover this city of endless opportunities, so we hardly slept anything and shot day and night for this time lapse film. The city that never sleeps indeed!
The Taxishot:
Over the 10 days we took photos of yellow cabs whenever we had time to from as many different angles as possible. So we gathered 2000 (!) photos in total we had to sort afterwards and compile to a hyperlapse around a cab in post production. It took us 5 whole days in post production to get this one shot.
Technical Details:
In 10 days we shot 65.000 Photos taking up 2,6 TB of our hard drives. The final 3 minute video took 36h to render on the best equipped iMac available.
